Answer:The isotope is Carbon-12 and its atomic mass is 12.

Explanation:

Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus.

Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.

An isotope of a chemical element is an atom that has a different mass number but the same atomic number as the element. The difference in mass number is from the number of neutrons (that is, a greater or lesser atomic mass) than the standard for that element.

Carbon-12 is an isotope of carbon it has 6 neutrons and 6 protons, giving it a mass number of 12 and atomic number of 6. Carbon-12 is a stable isotope of carbon, it has the same mass number and atomic number as carbon.

Identify the neutralization reaction.
dusya [7]

The neutralization reaction among all the reactions would be the one between an acid and a base to produce salt and water.

<h3>What is a neutralization reaction?</h3>

It is a reaction involving an acid and a base to produce salt and water.

From the list of reactions, the only reaction that involves acid and a base with salt and water being the products is the first reaction.

Thus, the neutralization reaction is represented by the equation:

2H_3PO_4 + 3Ba(OH)_2 --- > 6H_2O + Ba(PO_4)_2

Methanogenic bacteria convert acidic acid (CH3COOH) to CO2(g) and CH4(g)
Y_Kistochka [10]

The enthalpy of the reaction can be obtained from the enthalpies of formation as  -16.2 kJ/mol.

<h3>What is the enthalpy of reaction?</h3>

We know that any time that there is a chemical  reaction, there is an interaction that place between the reactants and the products and as such we are going to get new substances and these are the substances that I have referred to here as the products of the reaction.

In this case, we are asked to obtain the enthalpy change of the reaction. This tells us the heat that could have been absorbed or evolved in the reaction. We have to at this point know that the enthalpy change of the reaction gotten from;

Sum of enthalpy of the products - Sum of enthalpy of the reactants

ΔH = [(-484.5)] - [(-393.5) + (-74.8)]

ΔH = (-484.5) + 468.3

ΔH = -16.2 kJ/mol

52.1 mL of aqueous 0.255 M Pb(NO3)2 is mixed with 38.5 mL of 0.415 M NaCl. The equation for the precipitate reaction is: Pb(NO3)
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

0.0585 M

Explanation:

  • Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2NaCl (aq) → PbCl₂ (s) + 2NaNO₃ (aq)

First we <u>calculate the inital number of moles of each reagent</u>, using the <em>given volumes and concentrations</em>:

  • 0.255 M Pb(NO₃)₂ * 52.1 mL = 13.3 mmol Pb(NO₃)₂
  • 0.415 M NaCl * 38.5 mL = 16.0 mmol NaCl

Then we <u>calculate how many Pb(NO₃)₂ moles reacted with 16.0 mmoles of NaCl</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients of the reaction</em>:

  • 16.0 mmol NaCl * \frac{1mmolPb(NO_3)_2}{2mmolNaCl} = 8.00 mmol Pb(NO₃)₂

Now we <u>calculate the remaining number of Pb(NO₃)₂ moles after the reaction</u>:

  • 13.3 mmol - 8.00 mmol = 5.30 mmol Pb(NO₃)₂

Finally we <em>divide the number of moles by the final volume</em> to <u>calculate the concentration</u>:

  • 5.30 mmol / (52.1 mL + 38.5 mL) = 0.0585 M

The electron configuration belonging to the atom with the highest second ionization energy is ________.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Element Lithium

Explanation:

The element with the highest second ionization energy is lithium. It belongs to the alkaline metal group I.e group one metals

It has the highest second ionization energy because it is very difficult to remove the electron from the 1s orbital.

Its atomic number is 3. The electronic configuration is 1s2 2S1
